Windsor Half Marathon

The Windsor Half Marathon is an annual road running event held on the last Sunday in September. The race features a distance of 13.1 miles (half marathon) and is located within a historic setting.

The event is centered on the Long Walk, which serves as both the starting and finishing point for the race. The course provides runners with views of Windsor Castle, which acts as the backdrop for the final segment of the run. The route involves paved roads and includes undulating sections with hills.

Participants at the event have access to various facilities and services, including:

  • Baggage marquees for storage
  • Water stations positioned along the route
  • Course marshals and pacers
  • Finish funnels for organized timing

The race is organized as part of a larger running festival and includes a corporate challenge for business teams. On-course entertainment often includes music and dancing provided by volunteers and local groups, such as the Scouts, who staff the hydration points.

Accommodation and travel directions are available for those traveling to the area. The event also partners with various charities, allowing participants to use their run for fundraising purposes. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
